I used to be big fan of television when it was actually worth watching. I amassed a slew of shows to tune into including one called The Pretender. The show was about a man named Jarod who was kidnapped as a child and raised in a top secret, Area 51-like facility called The Center. He was a child prodigy and the people who kidnapped him put him through a series of simulations and used the ideas he came up with to perpetuate evil. The show begins when, as an adult, he escapes.Continue reading →

At times I experience periods of heightened creativity which is how I know I’m beginning a manic depressive cycle.

So I just finished watching an episode of the Boondocks. That show is hellaciously funny and I spent most of the time trying not to spit water all over my keyboard.

The Boondocks is about two black boys, Huey (10) and his little brother Riley (8) who are living in the suburbs of Illinois with their grandfather.
